The Klamath has been very low this summer, right up until two days ago when they released water from the dams.
With the release we got higher than normal water flow and depth and lots of green algae.

But they stopped releasing water and today the river is back to the low flow we had before the release. This would be a perfect time for folks to do some sniping or working with a shovel in places that are usually under water.

Long weekend coming up, so the timing is perfect.

So get out there, do some mining and come back and tell us how you did. Don't forget to take pictures.

And today the smoke was very light. Even in heavy smoke days it seems to be less smoky the further upriver you get from Happy Camp.
I guess you will just to take your chances and bring your particle masks.
